ABSTRACT
An experiment was conducted at Navsari Agricultural University, Navsari during 2007-08 on clayey soil to find out the effect of rabi greengram to land configuration (flat bed and raised bed), inorganic fertilizers (75 percent RDF and 100 percent RDF) and FYM levels (No FYM and FYM @ 5 t ha-1). The study revealed that quality in terms of protein content and protein yield (204.56 kg ha-1) as well as nutrient in relation to nitrogen and phosphorus content in seed and stover and total uptake by seed and stover were significantly highest under raised bed sowing over flat bed sowing. Among the fertilizer levels the significantly highest protein content and protein yield (208.92 kg ha-1) as well as nitrogen and phosphorus content and total uptake by seed and stover were observed under application of 100 percent RDF. Similarly protein content and protein yield (200.70 kg ha-1) also nitrogen and phosphorus content in seed and stover as well as uptake by seed and stover were found significantly maximum under application of FYM @ 5 t ha-1 over no FYM.
Key words :
FYM, Greengram, Inorganic fertilizer, Land configuration, Vigna radiata.
